Union Launches TeamstersForObama Web Site to Mobilize Members

Volunteer Opportunities, Downloads and Information on Key Union Issues Available

Over the past weekend, The International Brotherhood of Teamsters launched the TeamstersForObama.org to help educate and mobilize its members.

This web site, available only to Teamsters members, can be accessed by entering the Password published on the Contents Page of March/April Teamster magazine. The password login is case sensitive and must be entered exactly as it appears in the magazine.

The web site contains Sen. Barack Obama's positions on labor, trade, health care, the economy and more. Likewise, Teamsters can sign up for email updates on our election year efforts, view news headlines from the campaign trail, keep up with election oriented events, watch videos and order Teamsters For Obama gear.

Federal Election Commission rules limit what the union can say or post on web sites that are open to the public, such as Teamster.org. However, TeamstersForObama.org, a password-protected, members-only web site can provide Teamsters with more information about the election, the issues, the candidates and ways to get involved.
